Does anyone have any available technology for treating wastewater generated from approx 10 households?
We are actively looking for these micro sewage treatment stations to be provided to remote areas.
To areas that are disconnected from any municipal network, especially in Africa and Asia.
The Solution should be economical from both a Capex and Opex standpoints and easy to install in existing buildings/homes. Looking forward to see what solution are available in the market. Share technology details as well, to check the feasibility of the technology.
The normal solution would be to connect the properties together into a suitably sized septic tank. If further treatment is required then a reed bed would be appropriate. Capex and opex are minimal compared with any other system.
The Water Network research team has consolidated an answer to the above question. Further input from members is welcome and appreciated.
A free WWTP design generator tool hosted on The Water Network is our suggestion for designing a wastewater treatment plant.
All you need to do is fill in the parameters and wait a few hours to get the complete design in your email.
The tool generates the best Wastewater Treatment Solution based on the information about the geographical region, COD, BOD, TSS, nutrients, water quality characteristics, population and flow parameters, etc.
You can request an advanced design with the details stated above or a basic design which requires less information.

Please connect sjain271956@gmail.com for latest Technology invented , comprise of electromagnetic field for immediate flocculation, use of micro silica and flyash for adsorbing heavy metals.
Yes. the most efficiet and extremely cheap Technology is found by me which is yet to be told to the recent world. it consist of Electromagnetic field for immediate flocculation, use of flyash to adsorb chromium and lead, use of micro silica to adsorb Arsenic. The material prepared from these extremely cheaply available materials is kept secret.
Anyone interested can see the prepared working model which can clean sewage waste up to 85-90%.
I deeply thank you all for your input and would welcome your offer on my e-mail: pescarouse@gmail.com, possibly with Capex, Opex, pictures, and pricing.
Looking forward to it,

We have a prototype getting ready along-with NEWRI. You can connect with us after about 45 days when we shall more results and details ready. My email id is manish.patel@aspect.co.in
We are currently manufacturing the NextGen septic system that treats up to 1200 gpd sewage flow from one or more households and produces clear, non-turbid treated water that can be reused in the toilet or for irrigation of crops. The system can operate with solar/ wind power, although in the US model, it uses household electrical power.
Hello Laurent, As you see by my picture here on the side I am sitting with one of my old friends, who is a chief in Ghana, where I live and work almost half of each year. In my companies in the states we have developed two technologies that deal with your problem. The first and most economical is Electro-coagulation, which is a technology that operates off of a simple 110 volt electric system. Go to www.eco-web.com then Editorials tab and finally Authors tab and go to the 9th to the 12th papers and you can read about it. Also on that same site is a white paper on our technology called the Plasma Incubator Reactor. It is more expensive but it can handle the entire sewage output of a small city in Africa, to read about it go to www.abescousin1.com or email me a gerrybeagles@aol.com and my US phone is 916-877-1553.
Dear Laurent. BioGill manufactures above ground, biological bioreactors that provide a highly effective, low cost, low energy solution for small scale sewage treatment. You can learn more at:
Dear Laurent, we have decentralised biological SBR wastewater treatment systems from 4 to 2000 people plants. These plants are modular and can grow with your developments Please go to our website www.envirocontech.co.za or email me directly on hendrik@envirocontech.co.za for any queries and I will be happy to put together quotations and drawings for you. Please also see the following Links on http://www.enca.com/media/video/water-preservation-lies-toilet and , http://architectafrica.com/node/33973 . These links address your concerns and areas of enquiries directly. I look forward to hearing from you. Regards Hendrik Kuhn
Dear Laurent, I have just seen your request. The project is a very low scale one and I would not advise a micro treatment plant. Instead I suggest you to install a septic tank followed by an absorption pit OR a leaching field. The individual septic tanks of 1.5 m3 should suffice for each dwelling. A communal septic tank could occupy a larger space and would require operation and maintenance systems. The size of rge AP would depend on the soil permeability. If you need any further assistance you may keep in touch with us Please. Regards. Chandansingh Chutoori, from Mauritius
We are offer systems which operate completely autonomous. No electricity is required if there is sufficient slope for water to move down the system. If not the only thing required is a pump at the end of the system. Aeration occurs by natural airflow throuhg our filtermedia. This is a huge saving on OPEX and also CAPEX. We offer modular units which are easily sizable and capable of handling sewage from 1 house to small towns. Send me an e-mail at r.wagenveld@qmes.nl for more information.
I have designed for my clients and testes over past 5 years Micro Sewage Treatment plants for about 15 to 40 people waste water. Originaly the designe was intended for oir exploration camps in Canada, but presently people are using this type of systems and building them for clients in differnet applications in different countries.
The advatage fo the system is that it is very simple and any plumber could put it together with very little experience in water treatment. The system does not have any consumables and is designed to run with minimal service or maintenance for years.
The system contains, grinding/mulching pump 2-3 stage of bio-filtration using Matala mats, very efficient aeration and polishing with ozone. Here is a link to a 35 second video which shows how brown sewege water is processed in to clean water, which with some additional filtration could be used for drinking.
Many solutions are available, either compact (anaerobic or aerobic) or extensive (constructed wetland). Depending on your situation, I think you should prioritize extensive solution, as OPEX fit with remote areas and as this solution is often simpler for locals to fix.
If not possible, you could focus on the compact solution. However you will need energy supply and, from my experience, be careful as equipments often suffer from a lack of maintenance which make the installation fail after a few months/years.
MABR (Membrane Aerated Biofilm Ractor) is the next generation decentralized treatment. Energy consumption is just 10 percent of conventional processes (about 0.1 kWhr per m3 treated), total nitrogen removal is built into the process, the plant is modular, enabling gradual expantion, effluent quality is very high, CAPEX and OPEX are low.
All you need to do is fill in the parameters and wait a few hours to get the complete design in your email.
